Is that a stall mat? Was it easy to cut? Looks great.

Very good eye! Yes it is a stall mat available from Tractor Supply for I think about $40. It's the 4' x 6' one. I just cut it with a Bosch jig saw and a 20 tooth per inch blade (thanks to Chuck for the idea). Cut's amazingly easy. I already put one down around the base of my Bridgeport Mill I'm so impressed with how nice they are. One other thing. They're heavy and squiggly, have some help to lift it up there.ccandgc wrote:Is that a stall mat? Was it easy to cut? Looks great.

That looks like a really close match. The ebay link is dead at this point; any idea what this bellows is from or what the make/part number is?Lance-W wrote: ↑Wed Apr 19, 2017 2:32 pmSo I spent about 3 hours on Sunday Googling "rubber bellows, cable bellows, clutch bellows. throttle bellows, etc" I can't even remember all the search terms. I finally took a chance on this one.

I hit the jackpot. It couldn't fit any better and it was cheap. A little grease on the balls on the cable and it slipped right on like it was made for it.
